9 p.m. EST Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. 'til 4 p.m. Saturdays about this
exclusive Greenwood Chevy Performance Parts special!

The ZZ454/440 offers tremendous value in a
big-block crate engine. Based on the proven 454 HO with its Gen VI 454 block,
the addition of GM Performance Parts Signature series aluminum heads reduces
weight and increases horsepower to 440, up from the 454 HO's 425.
The ZZ454 shares its forged crankshaft and
connecting rods with GMPP's 454 HO and the family of famous 502 crate engines,
so you know it's strong. Forged pistons fill the block, and a steel roller
camshaft times the valves. Complete with dual plane intake manifold, water pump,
torsional damper and automatic transmission flexplate, the ZZ454 is one value
packed big-block crate engine.
With its throttle responsive 9.6 to 1
compression ratio, the gas-pump friendly ZZ454 is a great choice for muscle
cars, bracket racers and off-road truckers. Just add your 850 CFM carb, GM HEI
distributor, and 2-1/4-inch primary headers and you're ready to rip.
The ZZ454/440 is intended for use in
1978 and earlier pre-emission street vehicles, and any year off-road vehicles.
Technical Notes: For manual transmission applications use flywheel 14096987 and
a suitable 11" clutch assembly. Distributor P/N 1104067 or melonized
distributor gear P/N 10456413 must be used on all crate engines with steel
camshafts.
